Nashville Predators vs Washington Capitals Prediction
The Nashville Predators have been in a slump lately, scoring 2 or fewer goals in 3 of their last 4 games, and those issues usually don’t fix themselves on the road. The Washington Capitals have played great hockey at both ends of the ice this season, and they’ve done their best work at home, where they’re 6-1 on the season. The Capitals are rolling offensively, scoring 3 or more goals in 9 of their first 11 games. The price is cheap, and stepping in front of the Caps right now isn’t the move. Give me the home favorite.
